A line segment has 2 end points. The left end point is A, and the right is B. A geometric compass is shown with the compass needle on point A and the pencil of the compass placed about two thirds of the way along line segment A B.

A line segment has 2 end points, A and B. Two arcs, one open to the left and one to the right, are bisected by the line segment A B to the right of its center and left of its center, respectively.

Two arcs are bisected by line segment A B. The arcs intersect at points C above the midpoint of A B and D below the midpoint of A B. A line is drawn from point C to D through the midpoint, M, of A B forming a right angle.

The correct answer is: Two arcs are bisected by line segment AB. The arcs intersect at points C above the midpoint of AB and D below the midpoint of AB. A line is drawn from point C to D through the midpoint, M, of AB forming a right angle.

To find the measurement of ∠NKI, we need to understand that in a triangle, the angle bisector divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the adjacent sides.
In this case, we have the angle bisector of ∠JKI, which is ray KM, and the angle bisector of ∠MKI, which is ray KN.
Since ray KN is an angle bisector, it divides ∠MKI into two congruent angles. Therefore, ∠NKM = ∠NKI.
Similarly, since ray KM is an angle bisector, it divides ∠JKI into two congruent angles. Therefore, ∠JKM = ∠MKI.
We are given that the measurement of ∠JKI is 56 degrees.
Since ∠JKM and ∠MKI are congruent, each of them is half of 56 degrees, which is 28 degrees.
Therefore, ∠NKM and ∠NKI are also 28 degrees each.
Hence, the measurement of ∠NKI is 28 degrees.
